New routines that stick

Small habits to build structure.

After upheaval, days can lose their shape. Routines bring back a sense of control.

Start small

  • One fixed wake time
  • One meal at a regular time
  • One short walk or time outside

Link habits

Tie a new habit to something you already do. Make tea, then write one line in a diary.

Make it easy

  • Lay out clothes the night before
  • Keep simple food in the house

KEEP EXPLORING

Keep exploring.
